You have used the attribute named above in your document, but the document type you are using does not support that attribute for this element. This error is often caused by incorrect use of the "Strict" document type with a document that uses frames (e.g. you must use the "Transitional" document type to get the "target" attribute), or by using vendor proprietary extensions such as "marginheight" (this is usually fixed by using CSS to achieve the desired effect instead).

This error may also result if the element itself is not supported in the document type you are using, as an undefined element will have no supported attributes; in this case, see the element-undefined error message for further information.

How to fix: check the spelling and case of the element and attribute, (Remember XHTML is all lower-case) and/or check that they are both allowed in the chosen document type, and/or use CSS instead of this attribute. If you received this error when using the <embed> element to incorporate flash media in a Web page, see the FAQ item on valid flash.

that is relative to {search}. I removed {search} from my template and the error disappears.

I'm using a template derivate from "Left simple navigation + 1 column", with minor modification, but {search} is the default one

I can't unterstand where the string name="meb92fsearchinput" is coming from, I can't find it anywhere in my stylesheets or templates, I checked also with Admin search in my admin panel and into the database but meb92fsearchinput seems to not exist

It comes from the Search Form template (whichever is the default for your Design).

Placeholder is a valid html5 attribute, the Left Simple design is very outdated so probably is using an older doctype. You may want to look at updating your page template(s) to html5 rather than removing the placeholder attribute from the search template.
